REPUBLICAN RUNDOWN
September 2, 2022
Vol. 2, No. 65
CHAIRMAN'S CORNER
Ken Raymond, Chairman
3-2-1 - NCGOP STATEWIDE CAMPAIGN
3-2-1. What does that mean - our NCGOP statewide campaign?
If we get 3 more Republicans in the NC House ....
2 more Republican Senators in the NC Senate ....
and 1 more Judge on the NC Supreme Court ....
THEN we can stop the activism against our NC Constitution by the NC Carolina Supreme Court, and also, by Governor Cooper. Cooper will be overridden and a lame duck if we can achieve those numbers. It would mean that we can have the Voter ID we voted for in 2018. It would mean that the legislature would draw district maps as defined in the NC Constitution.
What does this have to do with NC House Rep. Jeff Zenger and Candidate for NC Senate 32, George Ware?
EVERYTHING! We need them to be a part of the 3-2-1 and bring us the Super majority in the NC General Assembly. Senator Joyce Krawiec does not have an opponent (for the first time). However, she is fundraising for the Senate Caucus to help elect our NC Senate Candidate George Ware.
Please join us as we phone call and walk for ALL of our candidates!
Our Election Committee is asking everyone to call us at 336.724.6000, volunteer at Headquarters, make phone calls and put your talk to your walk!! We need to make sure all Republicans and the UNA, and the SMART AWAKE DEMS vote for OUR CANDIDATES to make these necessary changes county and statewide. Let's make it a TEAM Effort...come join the TEAM!
We'll be making phone calls EVERY Tuesday from now until the Election - 4pm and 6pm. Please come to train and make your calls during the week from home or join us in the evenings. Pizza and snacks provided!!!

Each week we will be featuring a couple of our 2022 GOP Candidates! To see a full printable list of our candidates please CLICK HERE.
This Week Is
Jeff Zenger
Running For
NC HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES - DISTRICT 74
Jeff Zenger is a principled conservative running for House District 74 in the North Carolina House of Representatives. He is a small business owner that has grown his business into a successful company that builds commercial and residential structures across the state. Jeff is a strong believer and previously served as a missionary in the metro Baltimore area for many years. Jeff is a devoted husband and has raised four wonderful children with his wife. He has spent his life serving others and is ready to serve the people of House District 74.
Jeff believes that the role of government should be small, with a focus on local decision making. As a city councilman, Zenger saved taxpayers money by promoting efficiency and privatizing services when possible. As a small businessman, Jeff understands how important it is to plan for the future and stay in healthy financial standing. If elected, he will fight against corruption and wasteful use of our tax dollars. Jeff has a blueprint for success and is ready to lead.
Jeff believes in the God-given rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and knows that the rights of the individual must come first. That’s why he won’t let big government overreach to interfere with the lives of everyday North Carolinians. Whether it means protecting the unborn, standing up for second amendment rights, or loosening needless regulations on businesses, you can count on Jeff to hold the line.
VOTE RED IN 2022! VOTE ZENGER!

Also Being Featured This Week Is
Donny Lambeth
Running For
NC HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES - DISTRICT 75
Donny and his wife, Pam, have been married 47 years and are parents of four adult daughters and proud grandparents of seven grandchildren. Pam is a former teacher in the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools. All their daughters were students in the public school system of Forsyth county and have all gone on to receive college degrees at Universities in North Carolina.
A lifelong resident of Winston-Salem, Donny graduating from Parkland High School, earned his undergraduate degree from High Point University, and his MBA from Wake Forest.
His focus over the past ten years has been two-fold - - improving both Health Care and Education. He will return to Raleigh with this same focus.
With his previous experience in the Health Care industry, he has been a leader in reforming Medicaid to improve and provide a better system of care while ameliorating cost control. His efforts have been recognized nationally as he recently received the North Carolina Legislator of the Year Award by the National Mental Health Association.
His family includes educators at all levels of the education spectrum and his 18 years of service as Chairman of the WS/FC Board of Education was recognized both locally and at the State level. His commitment to providing a quality education for all students has never wavered. He is, has been, and will remain a champion for education as he continues to fight for Educational Improvements in North Carolina.
VOTE RED IN 2022! VOTE LAMBETH!

Judge Richard Dietz, Trey Allen, Chief Judge Donna Stroud, Judge John Tyson, Judge Michael Stading, and Julee Flood are your six Constitutional Conservative Judicial Candidates, running statewide and not against one another. Spread the word and help elect our 2022 Judges.
9/11 OUTREACH A SUCCESS!
A big thank you to everyone who helped make it possible for us to prepare 500 goody bags to give to our Police and Firefighters in honor and memory of those who served on 9/11. Attendees at the Forsyth County Republican Women's club meeting last week donated $150 to buy supplies and many people were very generous with donating snacks, candy and water bottles. Thank you to Alliance Architecture of the Triad for providing printing of the thank you notes that went inside each bag. And thank you to all the volunteers who donated their time making handmade cards and packing the bags on Wednesday. More volunteers will deliver them to the stations next week. This is a great endeavor that provides positive PR for the Forsyth County Republican Party and, most importantly, gives support to our amazing first responders.
If you'd like to be part of a project like this in the future, please contact Colleen Lopina at [email protected] to learn more about the Targeted Outreach Committee. A brother and sister handmade 100 beautiful thank you notes!
Our student volunteers were a big help with carrying boxes and preparing bags.

THE FCGOP EXPANDS ITS SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE
By Ken Raymond
As you all know, the big names in social media such as Facebook and Twitter, have joined the effort to censor those of us that believe in the first amendment, and they’ve driven away many like-minded conservatives from their platform possibly never to return.
Well, hopefully we can find a few of them and get them to join us. The Forsyth County Republican Party has recently increased its presence on social media, this week, and launched a new official Facebook page.
The FCGOP can be found now on Gab.com and Truth Social. To join us on Gab.com click here. And to join us on Truth Social click here. Our current official Facebook page will shut down on October 9th. But for those of you the follow our current page, you can join our new official page by clicking here.
All of our pages will feature the latest local, state, and national news that you can trust. Additionally, we will post the FCGOP’s upcoming events and activities. Please join us on any of these platforms to connect with your fellow conservatives and feel free to engage in healthy and respectful debate.
